Senate Bill 2106 allows for the Director of Natural Resources -- for the Department of Natural Resources to give the Village of Aroma Park three properties that they had purchased at the order of Governor George Ryan. So, DNR purchased this property, but as they found out, it was going to take a lot of money to fix it up. And what it is, is it’s three campgrounds with a combined total of 20.66 acres that lie in Kankakee County. DNR had 2 STATE OF ILLINOIS 93rd GENERAL ASSEMBLY REGULAR SESSION SENATE TRANSCRIPT 87th Legislative Day 3/3/2004 already put in fifty thousand and it’s proposed that they’ll probably be putting in a lot more. So they are selling -- or want to sell this property to Aroma Park for a dollar. And Aroma Park, then, has promised to take on all the cost of fixing up these three properties. I know Senator Watson had an issue in committee and we were able to explain it to him further. So I’d appreciate a favorable roll call. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DeLEO) Thank you, Senator. Is there any discussion? Any discussion? Senator Peterson, for what purpose you rise? SENATOR PETERSON: Sponsor yield? PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DeLEO) Sponsor indicates she’ll yield, sir. SENATOR PETERSON: Senator, is Aroma Park going to lease this property back to the State for its use, or are they going to use it for municipal purposes? PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DeLEO) Senator Halvorson. SENATOR HALVORSON: Senator Peterson, they are going to keep it for recreational use and to service the area in Kankakee County. PRESIDING OFFICER: (SENATOR DeLEO) Is there any further discussion? Any further discussion? Seeing no further, Senator Halvorson, to close. She asks for an affirmative roll call. The question is, shall Senate Bill 2106 pass. Those in favor will vote Aye. Those opposed will vote Nay. The voting is open. Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Have all voted who wish? Madam Secretary, take the record. On that question, there are 58 Ayes, 0 voting Nay, 1 -- 0 voting Present. Senate Bill 2106, having received the required constitutional majority, is declared passed.

This bill is one suggested by the Secretary of State, Jesse White. And what it does is emphasize the fact that bribery to obtain driving privileges is going to be a crime and -- and will continue to be one. It also covers bribery where the property or an advantage is given to an individual not authorized by law and it done with intent to influence the decisions or a driving instructor or licensed examiner.

It is with relief and a sense of accomplishment that this third volume, officially the 2011 version, under our editorship is belatedly presented. Two major changes have taken place in the production of the IPSR that we hope will increase the quality of the Review and its accessibility to a wider audience. First, the Board of the Illinois Political Science Association has agreed to change the IPSR to a biennial journal published every odd year. This is intended to allow us to more effectively peer review and examine more submissions from our colleagues. The IPSR is an entirely voluntary production and the two-year cycle will allow for a fairer and more comprehensive review.
